Cover: Multiple signal pathways in colorectal carcinogenesis: COX-2, 5-LOX, iNOS, STAT-3, HMG-CoA and b-catenin pathway have potential effect on modulation of genes causing cell proliferations and are counteracted by respective inhibitors. ER and RXR signaling have opposing effects on tumor growth which can be controlled by their specific antagonists and agonists (page 1-20).
